Toxic Masculinity

Problem with town is there are too many faux gangsta hard men fuelled on charlie and ale.

I tend to avoid town these days if I can and go down Manchester or St Helens / Warrington seems to be less aggro.

Less trouble in St. Helens , are you sure mate ?

Rough as a badgers arse St Helens is but can honestly say I've never had bother on a night out there even after the rugby match where the bars are filled with tanked up fans.

Only times I've seen bother were involving lads I assume were from the likes of Huyton/Whiston with the put on thick accents.

Thats just my experience like could be different for others - personally find Liverpool and Leeds the most edgy places for nights out these days.

Why I tend to avoid it these days I've had a few comings together down the years but its not worth it anymore the amount of idiots carrying blades.

Sadly as a City we embrace a scally culture - the Echo doesn't help when all it does is promote drug dealers and gangs every day.

Or, in other words, Liverpool FC.

It’s definitely a thing. If you’ve ever worked on construction sites for any period you’ll have witnessed it frequently.

Some men are indefensible tits. Women in the media harp on about it endlessly giving the impression that its pretty much most men.

Some women are tits. Little is said of these.

Basically the problem is people. Avoid people.

Another problem is the media deliberately cherry picking. There is a constant discussion about misogyny however when it comes to misandry it’s like a fart in the wind in comparison when it’s absolutely rife particularly amongst social media like twitter , TikTok and other guff like that.

And isn’t it interesting how it’s always “white men” it shows how sly and disingenuous they are, they give themselves away because they know they put another race they are off, cancelled.

I feel for the youth , the kids, not only are we in a pandemic but they are being taught this nonsense. It’s like morality, character building doesn’t apply anymore. We have advanced in lifestyles and technology however as human beings in some respects we haven’t advanced at all, there is still racism, sexism, hatred, sickos. No one is infallible of course but as I grew older I’d hoped we would of started to move on from some of this stuff and see it decrease a bit. Naive I know.

Amen.
Just amen!
Radio 4 has long been rife with this misandristic diatribe, and uts even elbowed itself into radio 4 extra where they frequent apologise before comedies "that were done in the past and so reflect past values" which by implication MUST be worse and less informed than the current generation accept - you know, that generation that have the world in absolute chaos.

It works though - so long as the establishment media has a way of dividing us, men v women, white v black, old v young; we are distracted from what the ruling classes get away with.

Has misandry resulted in longterm social structures that ensure men won't be paid as much as women for the same work?

No? Then stop crying before you out yourself as a sad incel virgin.

That sounds horrible. I thought it was illegal to pay someone a different wage with time served, hours worked and experience performing the same role were all equal. Any examples you can point out specifically in the past couple of decades?
